The Beauty Of Nature

I have something to tell you that I've just found out again for myself. This is the original message that I wanted to convey with this blog. I said it at the beginning, and I'm saying it again now. If you find that your life is becoming too busy with tedious everyday things, there is nothing better than making some time for nature to relieve your weary soul.

I've recently found my time constricted to almost nothing for myself. My time in this blogging world has been down to what seemed like less than nothing. I enjoy writing this blog and visiting others, but I've barely had time to write my posts. Anything else has been out of the question. My lack of time had become almost unbearable.

But now I've received a small break. The first thing I did was to head out to a hiking trail and just enjoy the pleasure of being one with nature. Where before I was exhausted, now I feel re-energized and happy again. My time is still restricted right now, but it's easing up and it will be back to normal soon. But it's nature that has made my recent heavy load bearable. Just remember this message for yourself. Nature is there for you.

The picture above was taken at the top of a hill at the beginning of a hiking trail where I took my very first pictures for this blog. This picture was taken yesterday. This was the first time I've visited this place since last spring. After going there yesterday I wonder why it took me so long to go back. Even a short hike is good. I really love nature. This trip to this place has helped me feel much better.

Hi Ratty. Sorry haven't been by for a while- I do subscribe to your posts so have been seeing them just haven't been spending a lot of time on the old blogosphere lately. I have started to do 'nature' walks every week now and I have to say it is fast becoming the highlight of my week! I feel great when out and about- I see so many wonderful creatures. It is great. I have even started taking photos again :)

I can sympathize. I used to live outdoors but lately, life has shoved me inside. Not to mention where I live there is nothing save the city park to get outside in. But this weekend I'm going hiking with some friends. Even if it rains (as the weather channel is predicting) I'm going. A little mud never did anyone any harm. Here's to things slowing down soon!

Ratty that's a great shot. I know exactly how you feel. I have to get out in nature at least three times a week in order to feel refreshed and invigorated in both body and spirit. Even if it's just for a short while.

Today I broke out of the house and went for a short hike. I walked to Borders Books. Hey it's L.A. Didn't feel like driving to where I could be in the real nature. I kind of miss my old home in East Tennessee sometimes.Lee

The Everyday Adventurer

Everyday and every day are commonly confused in English. There’s no difference in pronunciation, but using the wrong one when writing is a mistake in the everyday English language you use every day.

EverydayEveryday is an adjective that means commonplace, ordinary, or normal.

Example: These shoes are great for everyday wear.

Every DayEvery day means "each day."

Example: I go to the park every day.

I Am The Everyday Adventurer

I am The Everyday Adventurer and I will take you on a journey through nature trails, local places, shops, bridges, parks, hiking, and other adventures. We'll get stranded on a deserted island, and find the way back to civilization. Learn what it's like to get caught in a winter blizzard. See photos of falling snow. A bridge to another world. Hidden rivers, and lakes. A creepy swamp. Wild animals, and strange plants. Who knows? You could discover your own everyday fun. This is a tour of the unknown and magical. We'll travel to Wonderland and back. You'll see the rabbit and the blue caterpillar. You'll even meet Alice. A trip through lost and hidden places. You'll see strange oddities that are rare and wondrous. How about a weird arcade of the bizarre? Or a look through time and history? It's all here. The world waits for you! So look around, and be amazed!
